Earlier this summer, en route to her record-tying 22nd Grand Slam title, Serena Williams was asked what she thought about going down as “one of the greatest female athletes of all time.”
Her response was epic.

Now, Nike has backed up her claims in a new ad.
Words flash on the screen during the minimalistic minute-long ad, documenting Williams’ journey from the courts of Compton, Calif., to 22 Grand Slam titles and all the highs and lows in between.
At the end of the ad, the words “greatest female athlete ever” appear for a brief moment before the phrase is altered to read “greatest athlete ever.”
Nike has also put up the message throughout New York City, as Williams goes for Grand Slam title No. 23 in Queens.
